Audrey's Big Girl Room

I started drafting this entry over a year ago and have just never found time to finish it!  Audrey was hastily moved into her Big Girl room in February 2012 because we were leaving for Naples in a week and needed her to be able to sleep in a Twin without any problems.  On her first night, she didn't do well and ended up back in her crib but with her new big girl pillow.  Night #2 was a success and she's been a great sleeper ever since. 

It took us until the following August to finish decorating (and another 8 months for me to finish writing this!), although I think we need one more lamp.  The room is cavernous - 13' x 20.5'.  Before we built our his and her's walk-in closets, our master was 18' x 20.5' so it's not much smaller!  It made decorating tricky so we gave Audrey a small little reading area.  Her bedroom set is the same furniture my parents bought for me when I was 3.  I don't have a "before" picture because the room was empty save some moving boxes, but here's what the room looked like from the previous owners:
And here's what it looks like now:
This chair is my favorite thing in this room:
This door leads to a second floor "deck" which we never use.  Every house in our neighborhood has one and I think they're totally pointless.

About This Blog

Laura began this blog with the intention of someday chronicling our children's lives since our family is spread out from east coast to west. We wanted a way for family to get up-to-date news. Since we had no children at the time, it became a blog that followed our (her) foodie thoughts. Cooking, eating out and drinking wine are huge hobbies of ours so it only seemed fitting. Now that children are here we're going to attempt to meld the two together. You will notice "Foodies" and "Family" links at the top left of the page underneath the header photos. Use these links to focus in on the entries you want to read and bypass the others. We hope you enjoy.
